The Youth Convention of Zambia organizes a semi-yearly 4-day conference (Summer Camp) for roughly 1,500+ middle/high school students in the capital city of Lusaka. Last year, this camp was unable to be held due to financial hardships that were caused by an extreme drought within this region. The Leadership Team of this conference has extended an invitation for a Young Adult Team, all of which are leaders from Wonder Valley Christian Camp, to assist with teaching, classes, worship, activities, administration, and overall support of this year's Youth Convention in August 2025. This Summer, participants at Wonder Valley camp will have the opportunity to partner with this mission in three main ways: 

 

1. Prayerfully: We will partner in praying for this ministry happening in Zambia through this conference and within local churches to reach/train Middle & High School students to follow Jesus. 

 

2. Financially: Together, we will give toward helping fund the cost of this conference and to bring items needed to make it even more special for years to come. Ex. the average cost of a student to attend this opportunity is roughly $5 USD. | Ex. We would like to supply the camp with its first sets of 9 squares that can be used at conferences and around the year in local ministry. 

 

3. Making / Sending Camp Bracelets: During each week of camp at Wonder Valley, we want to extend the opportunity for students to make camp bracelets that will be prayed over and given to every camper attending the Zambia conference. 

 

A member of the Africa Mission Team will be present at each Wonder Valley Summer Camp opportunity to share this mission with the campers.
